One of God´s truly wonderful creations. He delivered our first two children in the seventies and we have such fond memories. He will be missed but is smiling down on all of us.

Dr. Joe was an amazing person & doctor. He delivered my daughter in 1974 and I had the privilege of working for him years later at Dr. Akiyama´s clinic. He was always soft spoken & kind...except he could really belt out a tune! My deep sympathies to his family

I met the amazing man back in the early '70's thru my friends the Bixby's, another great fisherman. My first introduction to Joe was at a ping pong table in the Bixby's recreation room. Such a big and friendly man... and played a masterful game of ping pong... with hands so big he could hide the paddle in his hands and reach halfway across the table to score... but always with a smile. I've never seen a big guy move so fast... he was amazing to watch and fun to be around. I'm sure he's now...

I hope every one who new Joe and his wife will learn the full story of these wonderful people. I knew Joe almost from the time he arrived in Juneau and off and on throughout his life, as an MD and a commercial fisherman. He did some remarkable work on me years ago and we both laughed about it years later. They don't make people like Joe Riederer . And its a shame because we sure could use more of them. Condolences to Jean and all the family.
